I was born in 1976 and Mike Tyson, Micheal Jordan and manic Johnson was made for me as an artist in the 1990! I drew them all

Dean Martin sang a song 60 odd yrs ago which I listened to as a child ''You're no one until someone loves you'' its a bullet.

This is the story of someone loving you and believing in you and shaping you to be who that person always saw in you. The greatness we can all achieve for ourselves has to be nurtured by the mother or father that have the responsibility to raise you to be.

I’ve been reading about Cus in his autobiography Undisputed Truth. Sounds like he was Mike’s father figure in life ❤

0:32 what the world needs, sometimes our own family dont or aren't capable of loving us, so we seek love elsewhere but god is great and nature is vast, biological family don't meat shit if you are treated like shit, plenty of love and connection out there. In my life i found more love from strangers than my own blood, makes me wonder who's the real strangers and who's truly family. Loyalty / Respect / Love = Family.

Tyson is one of the toughest men to walk into a ring, but talking about D'Amato he is a marshmallow. True love, God Bless them both.

Mike Tyson was lucky to find a mentor. Lots of kids, especially boys end up with nobody. We have a system that was targeting men to jail. I even heard one guy, dea, say the order was to target black communities. The men, specifically. So, next thing you know women are the only ones raising the kids. It's not right to anyone. Setting up communities to fail.
Also targeted, anyone that crosses the line. Children need good mentors that are stable. I'm glad to hear Mike Tyson was able to find someone that cared.🙏
Makes me think of that saying, "It takes a village". But, the family has been under attack for a long time now. & the village ends up insane. My goodness, good luck pp.

If he raped your 18 year old would you still be interviewing him?

This is why its important for men to be active in the community. Think of how Cus shifted the timeliness for Mike. He made the world a little bit better đź’Ş

Mike only had Cus in his life for 7 years and he mentions him in every interview, hes been dead for 40 years what a legend
